Act Presidential Will You!

Marvin Zuniga-Cruz, J1 Staff Writer

Imagine if the President of the United States, the leader of the free world, the man that children should look up to decided during a meeting about the bipartisan deal on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program to call certain countries vulgar names, thus insulting its people, its history, and its culture.

Sounds crazy, right? Wrong.

During the meeting he went on to call Haiti, countries from Africa, and El Salvador a vulgar name, the reason behind this was because he was asking why the United States should have immigrants from these countries and instead wanted immigrants from countries such as Norway. Once the news of what Donald Trump had said came out, there was universal condemnation from both Republicans and Democrats.

A few days after the news of his vulgar comments broke Donald Trump went on Twitter to proclaim that the language used during the meeting was indeed harsh but he did not make the vulgar comments that were being stated in the news. If the President of the United States did indeed make these comments it shows other countries in the world just how stupid and ignorant the rest of the United States is because we gave him the opportunity to become president and get elected.
